Barrie needs a university campus if you ask me. Something that will bring more life to the city than sleazy nightclubs and chain restaurants. It would also have a more populous catchment area than Sarnia, with the explosive growth in Simcoe County and northern York Region.
Would it support a...
I'm underwhelmed. Should have another 5-8 storey midrise along Neyagawa instead of rear frontage of townhouses. If the 407 Transitway is going to become a reality, there should be a way to make use of a potential Neyagawa station.
I, for one, am glad that the City took my advice and chose Wawatesi. A victory for sensibility.
Just kidding, I feel nothing. Let's just move on to the next new park and hope for something that doesn't try to be something it's not....
529 out of 726 units are less than two bedrooms... that's almost 3/4. I have a feeling that this is going to be a matter of debate.
I like the inclusion of that SFH, though. It has a lot of yard space to make use of.
I've been through it a couple of times. It was a little slow to get through the first time, when it was still very new, but other than that I think it works fine. I'm hoping that eventually we'll get one at Mapleview Drive here in Barrie - that interchange is complete chaos right now, and I...
Understandable, I suppose. There are much more accessible plazas to redevelop, so I'd imagine Humbertown was an easy choice to postpone with limited funds. At least the Edenbridge is being finished and no part of the property will be left vacant.
Red paint does not a BRT make. Especially for a city like Brampton that has much higher standards for its public transit. (Whether it meets those standards is a question for another thread.)
I find it pretty rich that the River Park "pays homage" to a river buried in the area by... keeping it covered with hardscaping and adding a token trickle through the site.
So far my favourite is Wàwàtesí, if only because it has a large vegetated area as the centerpiece. However, they all kind...
As much as I want GO service extended down BCRY, I think the funds just aren't there right now to get started on it. More important for the Barrie line is adding passing tracks, building stations at Innisfil/Mulock/Concord/Lansdowne, and the Bradford layover facility.
I'm glad it's not being...
It was an agreement made between the state government of Michigan and the federal government of Canada, so it's perfectly accurate and correct. Also, it's spelled Michiganders.
